Mass Effect Megathread: DING DONG BANNU edition - Games

[QUOTE=the_killer24;35517921]bad reading you get them from spectre packs[/QUOTE] Hmm I thought they would add special packs or did I miss something?

[QUOTE=n00bman;35517758]Sorry I meant the packs you buy for credits or Bioware points.[/QUOTE] They'll probably release them this weekend. Higher chance of resurgence items maybe. No harm in waiting.

[QUOTE=n00bman;35517965]Hmm I thought they would add special packs or did I miss something?[/QUOTE] That's what they said, but nope.

So I just got a Quarian Infiltrator in a pack and decided to try it out. So I took her level 4 self into a bronze quick match. As we played, I thought "Wow, this is terrible. I can't even take one bar off a banshee barrier." We survived 3 waves over 10 minutes. Then the stats screen came up. It was on Gold difficulty for some reason.

So I got the Striker assault rifle. Anyone knows if it's as broken as the Falcon?

[QUOTE=jiggu;35518080]So I got the Striker assault rifle? Anyone knows if it's as broken as the Falcon?[/QUOTE] I use it with my Tank Krogan Soldier, Max Health and Shields + Max Damage Resistance Fortification. Fill them with explosives as you close in, if they try to melee, just hit back.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PHlX6AC6SU[/media] I call these 1 3 Vanguards. Because.. well you know.. Anyone wanna come do this on gold. The build is: 1 is top. 2 is bottom. Charge 2 2 2 Shockwave is useless. Seriously. Nova 1 1 1 Training 2 1 1 Fitness 2 2 2 I want to see what a team of 4 of these things would do.

Everyone has been doing that since release.

[QUOTE=jiggu;35518146]Everyone has been doing that since release.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I just want to play with 3 others to see if it's super effective. Just informing those who might want to join. Charges and Novas can't combo with biotic explosions if they hit first right? Can charge + charge detonate biotic explosions? Nova + Nova?

I wish there were Quarian Soldiers in Co-Op. Shot once, and you got a suit rapture and are dead for the rest of the match But to make up for that, you get to whine about those mean Geth while you are dead!!

[QUOTE=Scar;35518361] Shot once, and you got a suit rapture and are dead for the rest of the match[/QUOTE] What?

[QUOTE=Jackald;35518436]Only if they're all voiced by Adam Baldwin.[/QUOTE] That guy was the weirdest quarian ever. American Accent.

[QUOTE=Errorproxy;35518466]That guy was the weirdest quarian ever. American Accent.[/QUOTE] valley girl.

Did I mention that I hate those Quarian suit rats? Because I do

Kal'reeger, Koris, Tali and that one mechanic who dies on Rannoch are the only Quarians I can stand.

Speaking of ease of death for Quarians, I was thinking earlier why they didn't create some awesome armored suits for when they fight shit. Like fucking knight's armor for Quarians, or mechanical suit. Seems more practical than "if we get shot once, gg".

goik to go to animeclub and then play the new resurgence pack WITH MY CRUSADER [editline]11th April 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=EXoDUSFLT;35518553]Speaking of ease of death for Quarians, I was thinking earlier why they didn't create some awesome armored suits for when they fight shit.

[QUOTE=Jackald;35518504]The Quarian that the volus thought stole his credit chit in me2?[/QUOTE] No, the one on Illium that's talking to the Turian that's trying to hit on her.

[QUOTE=Whatsinaname;35518625]No, the one on Illium that's talking to the Turian that's trying to hit on her.[/QUOTE] Stupid Volus. Dumb fat short wobbly armed bowl of pressurized jello.

They're already having a hard time fixing their own fucking ships, and they live in them.

This part in the Kasumi DLC looks so awesome. I stood here for like 5 minutes just watching the vista and the cars flying by.

I would actually like to see male quarians for mp, I rather like how their suits look.

Anyone interested in playing some Multiplayer with me on pc. Warm up on a silver run on one of the new maps and then do a gold. My Origin name is Kersplakastani, add me and I'll invite you. I'ma do a quick bronze first and then I'll host a game.

I got the harpoon weapon twice, the striker, geth infil and a scorpion today. I'm a ittle disappointed that geth infil comes with prox mine instead of something like sabotage or overload.

[QUOTE=Feuver;35518645]I don't think the Quarians would have the equipment to spare to put some heavy armor on their soldiers. They're already having a hard time fixing their own fucking ships, and they live in them.[/QUOTE] Equipping a few Quarian marines with heavy armour isn't much compared to maintaining the migrant fleet at large and even that hasn't stopped from from doing things like [sp]converting their own liveships into space cannons[/sp]. Quarians, like Salarians are remarkably strong for their appearances and weak physiology and could wear something like that with some more mechanical assistance. And it wouldn't surprise me if the appearance for units like Geth Primes, Juggernauts and Destroyers was based on what passed (or still passes) for Quarian heavy armour.

[QUOTE=Zet;35518788]I got the harpoon weapon twice, the striker, geth infil and a scorpion today. I'm a ittle disappointed that geth infil comes with prox mine instead of something like sabotage or overload.[/QUOTE] Proximity mine is terrible. 90% of the time it never blows up when something walks by. You have to hit enemies directly.

Geth Engineer MMhhh mhhh they are good.

So the geth turret only recharges shields, otherwise just the same as quarian turret?

Jesus christ the worst thing ever is multiple Salarians spamming Energy Drain on the target you are trying to Warp+throw. I have to detonate their shitty tech bursts with like 4 throws to get to my warp.
